These three documents are a full copy of Septimus Winner's "New Primer for the Guitar" copyright 1864. I got it in a very fragile state.
The New Primer is divided into three sections, which I loaded as individual documents for convenience. The first is instructions in both basic music and guitar playing, the second is a set of graded solos for practice, the third songs set with guitar accompaniment. The songs might be especially interesting to Civil War reenactors. Published in New York, it of course has a bias toward the Union, though no rampant anti-Confederacy songs.
Winner published a series of manuals for guitar and other instruments. I also have copies of his "New School for the Guitar" of 1870, his "Eureka Method" of 1891 in both guitar and mandolin editions, though the guitar is a 1921 reprint. Like some other American guitar manuals of the time, Winner's methods seem geared more to the parlor than the concert hall, and the goal appears to be enough proficiency to entertain rather than a high level of virtuosity.
I hope you find them useful.
